Mine is not a homemade recipe but I buy the Tazo Chai tea bags or the premade Tazo Chai in the tea and coffee section of our local market and either pour it over ice with some soy milk or I brew the tea bags, cool the tea and then have it over ice. I have tried some other brands but Tazo is the best.
